Mixed Doubles, Major Style: Jack Draper's Vuori debut, new US Open looks revealed

NEW YORK—The US Open’s revamped mixed doubles competition brought plenty of drama on court—with four teams now left chasing the $1 million prize—and behind the scenes. But on Tuesday, it also doubled as a showcase for the best of tenniscore style.

For tennis fashion watchers, the first event of the season’s final Grand Slam offered an early glimpse of the 2025 Fall/Winter collections, and even the first look at a brand-new apparel partnership.

Jack Draper x Vuori

The biggest fashion news came from Jack Draper, who debuted his first kit with new sponsor Vuori. The 23-year-old Brit announced his multi-year partnership with the California-based performance and lifestyle brand just hours before stepping onto Arthur Ashe Stadium with partner Jessica Pegula.

Draper, who will also launch a signature line with Vuori, spoke about his growing passion for personal style:

“For me, style is about how you carry yourself, what you wear, and owning who you are without hesitation,” Draper said. “As I've grown up, I've really embraced style as a form of self-expression, and whether it's shaving my head or trying something bold, I just go for it.

“That's why collaborating with Vuori is so exciting. It's a chance to create something innovative, performance-driven, and authentic, with no compromises.”

Elena Rybakina, Casper Ruud — Yonex

Elena Rybakina turned heads in a sleek white Yonex dress with orange zipper detailing from the brand’s 2025 New York Collection during her first-round match with Taylor Fritz.

The line, featuring a fall-inspired palette of olive green, orange and tan shades, was also seen on Casper Ruud, who advanced to the semifinals with Iga Swiatek.

Iga Swiatek, Ben Shelton — On

Representatives for On leaned into a city-inspired aesthetic for New York, with Swiatek and Ben Shelton both sporting a black-and-white colorway of the brand’s familiar silhouette.

Taylor Townsend — Own brand

Doubles world No. 1 Taylor Townsend continues to showcase her own line, which she launched during Roland Garros. Townsend has been designing and producing her own skirts, cropped tops, and warmup pieces—two of which debuted during her mixed doubles campaign with Shelton.

“I’m just taking things into my own hands,” Townsend told Tennis Channel in May. “I’ve had so much success and done so many things—but I’m No. 2 in the world in doubles and I still don’t have a clothing sponsor. So I was like, why not take it into my own hands and do my own thing?”

Venus Williams — Khaite

Venus Williams, the seven-time Grand Slam champion and founder of EleVen, made her US Open return in a custom navy dress by New York fashion house Khaite.

The design featured cap sleeves, an open back, and white trim along the hems, paired with Lacoste shoes. The fit was created by Khaite’s creative director Cate Holstein, formerly of Vera Wang.

Alexander Zverev, Karolina Muchova — Adidas x Y-3

Adidas tapped into Yohji Yamamoto’s signature vision for its Y-3 Fall/Winter 2025 Tennis Collection, spotted on Karolina Muchova and Alexander Zverev.

Both Muchova and Zverev wore dark purple separates for a striking monochrome look. The 18-piece collection—spanning footwear, apparel, and accessories—draws inspiration from Japanese ink techniques, all informed by Y-3’s seasonal direction.
